hello all. today was a good day. our morning went really well and the kids were much calmer than yesterday which was a blessing. we had some people from a work team over to our apartment for lunch so that was fun to be little hostesses! we also found out that some of the interns that are in jarabacoa might come to constanza next weekend to come hang out and go hiking. that would be so much fun! this weekend looks pretty busy as another team is coming and we are going to be doing some prep work for a sponsorship program. then on sunday i think we are going to the waterfalls again with the other house of kids which will be so fun. they have been counting down the days. ive been able to talk with the missionaries and other people and ask a lot of questions and learn about their ministry experience and ask for advice. im really trying to seek counsel on what to do from here and i got some great advice yesterday. a few people encouraged me to keep trying all different kinds of ministries, maybe even do something that doesnt involve kids, or go to europe or africa, just see whats out there and where my nitch is. so im just continuing to ask God to show me where i should go and what i should be thinking about for the future. i know that he will show me the way and i just need to be patient and trusting. its really exciting to dream and wonder about where God might take me!
